Along the way we have made some inspiring discoveries, two of which we share in this writing. The first is the use of the learning story as an effective way to document outdoor and environmental education teaching and learning not only in the primary grades, where learning stories were first formalized (Carter, 2010), but in the junior and intermediate grades as well. The second discovery,  \n106 Canadian Journal of Environmental Education, 21, 2016  \nbrought into focus by learning stories, is the compelling importance of emotion in the learning process.  \nThis paper begins by examining learning story pedagogy and its emerging use in teacher practice, followed by an outline of the emotional elements often found in narratives. Then we review neuroscience research findings identifying the importance of emotion in focusing attention and supporting memory—both key aspects of the learning process. We provide an account of the E4E (Educating for Environment) university/school partnership project, with resulting documentation over three years. Our comparison and analysis of the documentation is followed by four propositions for consideration by outdoor and environmental education practitioners.  \nSituating Our Story in the Literature  \nThere are two back-stories that require telling before we can make the connection between environmental education and emotion. The first traces the development of learning stories as a form of pedagogical documentation, connecting storytelling and the bodymind. The second story delves into neurochemicals and the bodybrain functions from which our emotions, and our learning, originate.  \nLearning Story’s Roots  \nIn post-World War II Italy, in the town of Reggio Emilia, a unique approach to early childhood education was launched under the leadership of Loris Malaguzzi (Hewett, 2001) . This pedagogy recognizes that children are the architects of their own learning, and are considered “beautiful, powerful, com","cbCaiohEmVnTNXW1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiohEmVnTNXW1","pdf",1828030,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Situating Our Story in the Literature\n## Learning Story’s Roots\n# Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What is the focus of learning story pedagogy in this paper?\",\"answer\":\"The paper examines learning story pedagogy as a way to document outdoor and environmental education teaching and learning, including the emotional elements often present in narratives.\"},{\"question\":\"How does neuroscience relate to emotion and learning?\",\"answer\":\"The study draws on neuroscience research indicating that emotion helps focus attention and supports memory, which are key parts of the learning process.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the E4E project contribute to the study?\",\"answer\":\"The E4E university/school partnership project provides a detailed account of documentation gathered over three years, which the paper then compares and analyzes.\"}]","Emotionality and Learning Stories: Documenting How We Learn What We Feel | PDF",1792083605,48]
